No Module Named '_pywrap_tensorflow_internal'
Question:
While trying to validate the installation of tensorflow-gpu, I get an ImportError when trying to execute “import tensorflow as tf”. I am using a Quadro K620 on Windows 7. Tensorflow was installed using pip.
The following is the stack trace:

I have looked at multiple other stack overflow posts which things like correcting the path but I have not been able to solve this issue.
Answers:
After you install the CUDA Drivers you must download cuDNN and release it. After that you get to copy the cudnn64_5.dll to PATH.
If that doesn’t work, move the cudnn64_5.dll to
NVIDIA GPU Computing ToolkitCUDAv8.0bin and try it again. Otherwise you’d meet some error that you see.
https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/7705
switch to cuDNN 5.1 instead of 6.0
I came across the same issue today, please switch to cuDNN v5.1 Library for Windows instead as @mickdelaney suggested and then try to
-
Check environment settings of CUDA, normally all the settings of CUDA had been added to Windows environment
-
Copy files in bin, lib and include of cuDNN to bin, lib and include of CUDA respectively. Normally the directory is C:Program FilesNVIDIA GPU Computing ToolkitCUDA
And then you can import tensorflow and run your code. Good luck!
I still got this error after installing cuDNN 5.1 (yes, I had PATH set correctly). I had better luck installing tensorflow_gpu from this site. This requires cuDNN 6.0, not 5.1. Unfortunately they currently only have Tensorflow 1.1 for GPU systems.
I am a chinese, so my english is poor, and my answer is that however you use cudnn 7 or 6 or 5 , you must rename the dll from cudnn64_x.dll to cudnn64_6.dll after you copy files.
maybe soon, you need to rename the dll to 7 or 8 or 9 as possible.
you could uninstall the current version of tensorflow and try a low version such as TensorFlow 0.12 using the code
pip install --upgrade https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/windows/cpu/tensorflow-0.12.0rc0-cp35-cp35m-win_amd64.whl
https://blog.csdn.net/baidu_36669549/article/details/79734590
I had the same error with anaconda, it was previously installed with another program through anaconda. Installing again through conda-forge worked: conda install -c conda-forge tensorflow
this is all about your video chip/card and CPU compatibility with TF VERSION! Current version of Tensor Flow is 1.8 and it crashes on both my machines.
I have a win7 Gateway notebook using an I5 CPU and intel video chip. I have a desktop win7 unit with AMD Phenom II and AMD Radeon HD5450 video card. The I5 notebook requires V1.6 of TensorFlow and the desktop AMD unit takes V1.5. I don’t have a GPU available for running ANN’s so I don’t know how that would affect it.
Here’s the command line for PIP install: pip install –upgrade tensorflow==1.5.0 (or whatever other version you need). This will uninstall your current version and then install the indicated version.
Build or copy a small TensorFlow script and run it in a command window. Open a second command window and install a different version. I’d recommend starting at 1.5 and working your way up.
I found the solution for the CPU: It worked for me
Just run below command if necessary then update it
pip install tensorflow==1.5
The only thing that worked for me (Windows 10) is:
Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable Update 3
If you have a new fresh computer setup this one might miss.
It worked for me after doing this command :
pip install tensorflow-gpu == 1.15.5
I was previously with tensorflow-gpu 1.15.0 when it was showing the error
